I am a little over ordering it online bit don't want to drive all over town looking for it. Any suggestions? Does anyone live in the area who knows where I can for cretin find it?

If you are insistent on getting the pond foam, try garden centers that sell a decent selection of pond supplies. A couple of my lfs that sell pond supplies also sell it. I like the regular stuff personally, at $15/ can, it's a bit pricey for some of my builds.

Thank u bill,

I will try that. I'm doing such a small build I thought I'd give it a try with the pond an stone since it's already black. But I have Hurd the regular witch is fare easier to find works just as well . Do you have a recommended silicone?

If you are using the regular great stuff, then ge silicone ii in brown is awesome since you can actually see your coverage. For pond foam, i still recommend ge ii. Personally, i prefer titebond iii wood glue.

Awesome, can I get those at my local hardware store? An there safe for frogs right!?

Yup. In fact, walmart sells ge silicone i (also frog safe) just do not get the version for bathrooms. It has mold/fungus inhibitors that would be harmful. That's why i highly recommend titebond. Dries like a rock, 100% waterproof and your coco fiber doesn't need to be dry. Also, you can do more than one coat if you need to.
